[Video] Beyonce and Jay Z step into character for Part One of ‘Bang Bang’ short film

Beyoncé and Jay Z’s “On the Run” tour may be over, but the power couple continued the outlaw theme in the first part of “Bang Bang,” a three-part short film directed by Dikayl Rimmasch.

In the video, Bey and Hov are seen speeding through the California desert to escape the law. The video clearly draws inspiration from Bonnie and Clyde and the classic westerns of the past, as Jay Z sports the black hat to indicate his role as the bad guy with his partner-in-crime by his side.

Clips from the short film were shown throughout their summer-long tour, which grossed over $100 million. The tour wrapped up in Paris on Sept. 12 and 13, and those performances will be highlighted in an upcoming HBO special that will air on Sept. 20 at 9 p.m. ET.
